About the USD/BRL exchange rate

USD/BRL is one of the more volatile major emerging-market pairs. The real reacts strongly to commodity prices, Brazilian interest rates, which have often been high by global standards, and domestic fiscal and political news, so moves of several percent in a month are not unusual.

Brazil charges a financial transactions tax (IOF) on many foreign-currency operations, including international card purchases and some transfers, which adds to the cost beyond the exchange rate itself. If you're converting a significant amount, check both the rate and the tax your provider will apply.
